Simply the best roast beef sandwich I've ever had. Hand carved steam ship round. Sublime gravy. Crispy Sarcone"s Kaiser roll, Sharp provolone ,and a perfect red long hot pepper. Under $10. Small cute place run by a really nice couple dedicated to quality. Great ice coffee was just a pleasant surprise. Close to the stadium on Broad. If you are going to an afternoon game give this your most serious consideration.

We were looking for a quick lunch following a funeral nearby. This place had some great reviews so we gave it a whirl. The staff was friendly, fortunately it wasn't crowded. We ordered their specialty- roast beef sandwiches, sat down and a few minutes later our order came out. I rarely order roast beef but this was on point. Everything that makes a classic sandwich- beef was juicy and tender, just the right amount of "au jus", sharp provolone, crusty roll, dollopof horseradish- I topped mine off with a roasted long hot pepper. Totally forgot to take a photo. But there's a reason people are saying they are better than Nick's. The menu isn't extensive, but it doesn't need to be. Definitely recommend giving this spot a shot. I will caution that there are only a few tables, so I'm guessing they do a lot of take out business.

Every time I bite into their sandwich it reminds me of my grandmothers roast beef growing up. No offense to Nick's but this is the best beef in the city. If you are expecting a steakhouse setting with a a bunch of tables this isn't that... this is a small cafe with a huge cut of the best roast beef piled high on a fresh Kaiser roll. The staff here makes you feel at home and I love coming here. I suggest a long hot to accompany this little piece of art ! Extremely addictive.

First time, walked up to a locked door and was told they only have beef w/wo cheese, no menu, no niceties, nothing outside to eat on.Drove to a park four blocks south and found a bench,Worst Sarcones roll ever, meat was mushy, dry, asked to be very, very wet, and that was not honored. Gravy was flavorless. No pepper flakes,Ate 2 bites and tossed. Went to Nicks for a perfectly wonderful sandwich.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I order from here like twice a week and I'm never disappointed. The roast beef is amazing. $13 for a roast beef sandwich, a drink and chips. I get mine soaked, with banana peppers on the side and a raspberry tea to drink. I constantly crave the roast beef sandwich from here. I've never gotten the chance to go in here but I have to- to tell these people how good their food is! Keep it up!I have to add their roast beef sandwich is the best one I've ever had in Philly. Forget all the other overhyped places and try this place. You'll be totally hooked.
